Then obviously you have the TA's confirmation and invoice for your cruise. I can not think of any reason that the TA would not include the OBC they are giving you on their invoice. It is probably not going to make you fell any better, but I would certainly be leery. Did you confirm that your deposit was actually charged to Celebrity and not the TA?

Yes, it was charged to Celebrity. I have asked him to send Me confirmation of additional OBC. We shall see.

It is good to have it from the TA but if for some reason they don't give you the credit when you get onboard having it in writing won't get it for you. If they don't have it in their system you will still have to contact your TA to contact corporate.

 

On Princess we had a group and onboard they had no record of our credit and said the TA must not have put it thru. They said that to the TA who was on the cruise and was the one who went to guest relations. She told them she damn well had put it thru and had her documentation of it. not enough. She had to contact Princess corporate and her DSM while on the ship. They had it in corporate but somehow had not forwarded it to the ship. We did get the onboard credit while onboard.

Thank you for that information.

Ok, I looked at my original email from the TA. It has the TA logo on top. Then the celebrity itinerary in the body of it.

Perhaps you do not receive any additional OBC from your TA or you do not receive the actual Celebrity confirmation/invoice?

 

From my experience the OBC from the TA (additional out of their commission) never shows on the actually confirmation/invoice from Celebrity (or on line)' but the TA OBC is always reflected on the TA's confirmation/invoice. Or perhaps your TA never sends you the actual Celebrity confirmation/invoice because some TAs do not send both of them.

 

OP, did you receive two confirmations/invoices?

I received a confirmation invoice from my TA which shows my Go Better perks (classic bev pkg and$150 OBC pp). It did not show additional OBC offered by TA anywhere.

I have asked my TA to send me an email confirming this additional OBC.

I think the comment about trusting my TA is just silly. It's just good practice to have everything in writing. There's no way to get it fixed once I'm on board.

So what do you suggest I do?

Okay, I called my travel agent. He stated that the confirmation will not show the travel agents onboard credit, because I'm part of a group? Does that sound correct?

Just wondering where I would see evidence of having this OBC credit? I was told that in addition to the $150 pp OBC (Go Better pkg), my travel agent gave me $150 of OBC. But I am not seeing this on my reservation on Celebrity, nor is it indicated on the invoice my TA sent me.

Should I be seeing it somewhere?

I am wondering the same thing!

Darn. That means she'll not be on our January 7th Summit Cruise.

I do remember a cool, round outside bar that was quite busy, right by the pier. Planning on hitting that up myself this time.

I would also suggest Turners Beach. Very quiet beach. Great little beach bar. Chairs and umbrellas for rent. Don't know anything about Darkwood Beach.

Wikipedia has this:

Yes, that's them! If you read the description, they are sponge cake-like. So, so good.

Our flight leaves at 2:30. Will there be time enough for a 10:30 Bacardi Mixology tour?

Trying to fit it all in . . .

On my last cruise this past August I had to go to about 5 bartenders before one knew how to make me a Paralyzer. And this bartender knew it by a different name.

 

Just for fun, does anyone else know? And bonus points anyone know what the another name is?

Is it the same thing as a Painkiller? Rum, Pineapple juice, cream of coconut and orange juice?

Just ask the maitre'd when he comes around to make sure all is ok.

Great, thanks!

It looks like they are missing the white chocolate half. And these look more cookie-like and less cake-like. :(

Is the Tribute band "Fleetwood Mix?"

Can someone post a picture of these black and white cookies?

I don't know what they are and I so want to know :o

Here is a photo of a black and white cookies. Not Celebrity's but this is a reasonable facsimile of it. They are cake-like and half dipped in dark chocolate; half dipped in white chocolate.

OMG, I'm drooling.

I had one everyday on our 13-night Mediterranean cruise on the equinox. Sadly, I never took one picture of them.

How did you find the head baker to ask him? At al Bacio?

Sent from my SM-N915V using Tapatalk

Ha ha, good one. Seriously though, is there anyone that you can talk to it celebrity about bringing them back? Do they even care that we miss them?

Sent from my SM-N915V using Tapatalk

Has anyone sailed recently, and can tell me whether they have brought the delicious black and white cookies back to Cafe Al Bacio (please say yes!) ?

So then the pricing is $3999 per person? NOT 2-for-1?

We are looking at a Seven Seas cruise in early 2018, but I'm a bit confused with their pricing.

Just looking at the lowest category veranda cabin, it lists the brochure price at $10,998 per person, then next to it shows a "2-for-1 fare" of $3999. Is that the entire fare? Why the vast difference between the brochure pricing (which is per person) and the 2-for-1 fare which I'm assuming is the total fare?

Is the "2-for-1 fare" pricing a special rate they have going on for a short time, or is this always how they price their cruises?

I have the same problem. Find it extremely odd that you cannot get diet tonic water at any bars or restaurants. I didn't realize I could bring it on board the Summit. Do I needa doctor's note?
